Whatever industry you\u2019re in, you\u2019re in the job of creating. Sure, some businesses are more creative than others, but whatever it is that your company does, it\u2019s creative. You\u2019re trying to find solutions to problems, and, in any case, you need to have ideas in order to make sure that your business is always moving forward.<\/p>\n

However, when you look at some offices, you see that they\u2019re not set up whatsoever to inspire creativity. They\u2019re bland, grey, and boring. We\u2019re usually only dimly aware of how much our surroundings affect us, but it is, for sure, the case. If you\u2019re working in an environment that limits your mind, then you\u2019re only holding your business back.<\/p>\n

Instead, you should aim to create a workplace that feeds the creative process.<\/p>\n

Here are 20 QUICK tips for making your office inspire more creativity:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a comfortable and inviting space.<\/strong>\u00a0People are more likely to be creative when they feel comfortable and relaxed. Make sure your office is well-lit, has comfortable furniture, and is free of distractions.<\/li>\n
  2. Incorporate natural light.<\/strong>\u00a0Natural light has been shown to improve mood and productivity, both of which are essential for creativity. If possible, let as much natural light into your office as possible.<\/li>\n
  3. Add plants.<\/strong>\u00a0Plants have been shown to improve air quality and reduce stress, both of which can contribute to a more creative environment.<\/li>\n
  4. Use color.<\/strong>\u00a0Color can have a big impact on mood and productivity. Choose colors that you find stimulating and inspiring.<\/li>\n
  5. Display art.<\/strong>\u00a0Art can help to create a more visually appealing and stimulating environment. Choose art that you find inspiring and that reflects your company’s culture.<\/li>\n
  6. Provide comfortable seating.<\/strong>\u00a0People are more likely to be creative when they are comfortable. Make sure your office has comfortable seating options for both sitting and standing.<\/li>\n
  7. Encourage collaboration.<\/strong>\u00a0Collaboration is essential for creativity. Make sure your office has spaces where people can gather and share ideas.<\/li>\n
  8. Provide access to resources.<\/strong>\u00a0People need access to the resources they need in order to be creative. Make sure your office has a well-stocked library, as well as access to computers, printers, and other tools.<\/li>\n
  9. Encourage play.<\/strong>\u00a0Play is a great way to stimulate creativity. Make sure your office has spaces where people can relax and let their imaginations run wild.<\/li>\n
  10. Offer snacks and drinks.<\/strong>\u00a0People need to be fueled in order to be creative. Make sure your office has a well-stocked kitchen with snacks and drinks available.<\/li>\n
  11. Take breaks.<\/strong>\u00a0People need to take breaks in order to stay focused and creative. Make sure your office has a policy that encourages people to take breaks throughout the day.<\/li>\n
  12. Celebrate successes.<\/strong>\u00a0When people feel appreciated for their creativity, they are more likely to be creative in the future. Make sure to celebrate successes, both big and small.<\/li>\n
  13. Provide feedback.<\/strong>\u00a0Feedback is essential for growth and development. Make sure to provide feedback to your employees on their creative work.<\/li>\n
  14. Allow mistakes.<\/strong>\u00a0Mistakes are a part of the creative process. Make sure your employees feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them.<\/li>\n
  15. Be patient.<\/strong>\u00a0Creativity takes time. Don’t expect your employees to be creative all the time. Be patient and supportive of their creative process.<\/li>\n
  16. Encourage risk-taking.<\/strong>\u00a0Creativity often requires risk-taking. Make sure your employees feel comfortable taking risks and trying new things.<\/li>\n
  17. Be open-minded.<\/strong>\u00a0Creativity requires an open mind. Make sure you are open to new ideas and perspectives.<\/li>\n
  18. Be supportive.<\/strong>\u00a0Creativity is often messy and unpredictable. Make sure you are supportive of your employees’ creative process, even when it doesn’t go according to plan.<\/li>\n
  19. Be positive.<\/strong>\u00a0A positive attitude can go a long way in fostering creativity. Make sure you create a positive and supportive work environment.<\/li>\n
  20. Have fun!<\/strong>\u00a0Creativity is more likely to happen when people are having fun. Make sure your office is a place where people can relax, let their imaginations run wild, and have fun.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Below, we take a look at a few tried and tested methods that\u2019ll make your office a more creative space, none of which are difficult to enact. Make the changes, and open up your company\u2019s creative possibilities.<\/p>\n

    There are some people who work well in a dark, enclosed place, but they\u2019re usually just writers who need to go deep into their mind. There\u2019s a time and space for shutting yourself away, but an office environment is not one of them. Instead, look at creating a light and bright space. It\u2019s much easier to think big when you\u2019ve got natural sun rays filling your working area. And just an aside, this usually works to boost productivity too.<\/p>\n

    Splashes of Color<\/h3>\n

    Take a look around most offices, and you\u2019ll find the same old shades of grey on the walls. It\u2019s the most obvious choice, but it\u2019s far from the best. If you\u2019re trying to inspire some creativity into your team, then it\u2019s much better to have splashes of color rather than a grey wall. You could begin with a colorful base, say light blue or something similar, and then add a few designs. You don\u2019t need to go overboard — just something that feeds the mind with more than just bland colors.<\/p>\n

    On the Walls<\/h3>\n

    As well as the color of the walls, you\u2019ll also want to look at hanging up some more creative wall art up there too. Works of art such as landscape photographs or paintings can offer a subtle yet powerful touch of creativity to your workplace. You\u2019ll want to make sure that they\u2019re in general keeping with the theme of your company, but beyond that, there are few rules. Whether it\u2019s an abstract painting or a photograph of a beautiful view, there\u2019s nothing that\u2019ll inspire creativity such as a work of quality art.<\/p>\n

    Make Things Grow<\/h3>\n

    We\u2019re beginning to understand more and more about the positive impact that nature has on the human mind. It elevates our spirit, makes us happy, and feeds the creative process. There\u2019s a reason why so many artists spend so much time in nature. Of course, when you\u2019re located in a downtown area it\u2019s difficult to fully replicate the sensation of walking through a thriving forest, but there are other ways you can get your nature fill. One of the best ways is to initiate a workplace vegetable garden. If you\u2019ve got even a slither of outdoor space, it\u2019s possible to grow some vegetables. If not, you can get special indoor systems. At the very least, you\u2019ll want to fill the office with a few plants. Plants and growth are things where it can be difficult to see how it\u2019s impacting the creative process, but don\u2019t overthink it — the magic is working underneath the surface.<\/p>\n

    Creative Corners<\/h3>\n

    One of the main obstacles to creativity is that, while the ideas might be fermenting in the mind, there aren\u2019t too many places to put those ideas into practice. A worker\u2019s normal desk will become stagnant if they\u2019re working there for too long. At some point, the creative mind just dries up — and it\u2019ll only kick in again with a change of scene. So why not look at giving your workers an alternative place to let their ideas come together? You can set up a creative corner where individuals and groups can work on an idea that\u2019s kicking around their head. If you have space and the budget, look at making this space a little more adventurous than the regular office space. Bright colors, comfortable chairs, and anything else that feeds into the creative process will be well-received.<\/p>\n

    \"being-creative-at-the-office\"<\/p>\n

    Sleek and Modern<\/h3>\n

    If you\u2019re in a position to makeover your office<\/a>, then look at incorporating a sleek and modern design to your space. Creative is always cutting edge; it\u2019s about pushing forward and doing something that hasn\u2019t been done before. While you don\u2019t need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to your office (unless you really want to\u2026), there is follow in following modern designs. If nothing else, it\u2019ll get you and your workers into the mindset of thinking that this isn\u2019t a place where the old and traditional rules have a stronghold, but where the new world is shaped.<\/p>\n

    Add the Fun<\/h3>\n

    We think of work as, well, work, but really, it should be fun. Think about the processes that are involved in both. Work is pushing buttons and taking care of the practical side of things. Fun is a creative process where you\u2019re fiddling around until you find the answer. While there are some limitations on how much play you can bring into the actual work process, there are ways to incorporate fun into the workplace. You\u2019d be surprised by just how much a game of table tennis, for example, can bring out a creative way of thinking. Anything that gets the mind working and the body moving will be effective.<\/p>\n

    Feed the Senses<\/h3>\n

    We\u2019re not brute machines that should just power through work. We\u2019re animals, and that means that we\u2019re responsive to natural signals. In your office, you can make the most of these by adding a scent diffuser that emits smells that have been known to boost creativity. Lemon, for example, has been shown in studies to aid concentration. Lavender has been shown to reduce stress. Tangerine lifts our mood, and gets us into a more playful state. Like the plant situation, all of these essential oils won\u2019t make a noticeable, instantaneous different — but they are working under the surface.<\/p>\n

    Office Layout<\/h3>\n

    One of the biggest changes you can make to your office is to change your layout. When we first set up our desks and chairs, we often just take a look at what looks the best\/what\u2019s the most practical. But these two things might not work best with what\u2019s most creative. As such, take a look at mixing things up. It\u2019ll depend on the type of space you have, and also the kind of creative work you\u2019re trying to achieve (for example, group creativity or individual endeavor). Even if you can\u2019t come up with one formation that sets itself up for creative, it\u2019s always a good idea to just change the position anyway. It wakes up the cells when things change.<\/p>\n

    A Well-Stocked Kitchen<\/h3>\n

    Let\u2019s remind ourselves again that we\u2019re just animals. We need a few essential ingredients in order to be at our creative best, including sunlight, life, and, yes, sustenance. So take a look at your kitchen, and look at making a few subtle improvements. For starters, there\u2019s a big difference between a regular coffee machine and one that makes an outstanding brew. One underrated addition is a smoothie making station, with ingredients that boost work set up for use.<\/p>\n
